I have a GT-40 upper and lower intake. The lower has the ACT provision freshly drilled and tapped. The upper has been opened to 75mm and also comes with a BBK 75mm t-body spacer (you can still use a 75,70,or 65mm t-body on it).
The finned areas of the intake were removed and replaced with smooth aluminum. I am going to polish the "tank" area,and the T-Body . The center tube area will be painted either Ford Blue,or a metallic graphite or silver.The lower will probably be left natural aluminum. I'll be asking $425.00 shipped for all 3 pieces.

I wish they had made one of those for the ugly v6 intake. I would buy it.
I'll stick with your old one... but it would be cool to have
Jerry,with your welding skills,I really don't see why you couldn't fab one up easily.
Steve, just swap in a 5.0 and you're on your way.
I would have to see one up close first.... but your right, I could make one I guess...I really wanted the attachment to weld aluminum for my welder
WOAH....:brick: Now, there's an idea for my 6'er... hmmmmm...... Now you've got me thinking again:evilgrin:
You goin' back to the Explorer Gt-40, or something new?
I have had a hard on for this intake since I saw it in your car..... good luck!
I'm keeping my GT-40 that I have now. Jerry has my Explorer piece,and I have an extra GT-40 and Explorer (uppers and lowers) in the garage waiting for some love before I send them to a new home eventually.
I have the GT40 now,as you know,Jerry,and as much as I like it,it doesn't make any difference in power,and to be quite honest, I think the Explorer intakes I've had (the "FPV one you have,and my other "Cobra" version) had more character. I'm keeping the GT40 for a while, but I wouldn't be surprised if I sold it and went back to an Explorer intake with a polish and some other visual mod done to it.
I could make one with big tubes that stick out of the hood...lol
Just because one
CAN do something doesn't necessarily mean one
SHOULD do something. LOL.LOL.
I know, but it's a funny thought, isn't it
Throttle body intake:giggle:
Pics coming Saturday.
Pics are posted...
Nice...I'd love to have one...but bare natural finish for me. lol
If you buy it,I'll bead blast it for you....all natural.
Loan me some money, and I'll buy it :hick:
What could I get, that you'd want to trade for it? Need a kidney? lol
Hmmm.
It's only $425.00. No big deal.
Buy it.
Coming up tomorrow....Cobra intake,upper and a lower,and a 70mm throttle body to bolt onto it..
Also.....I have a set of Scorpion 1.72 roller rockers for pedestal mount heads on the way as well.
Good stuff if you're looking to upgrade.
GT-40 intake SOLLLLLD !!!!!!
